Chapter One-Hundred-and-Twenty-Five
Adam hadn’t seen Luvicidix since before Stage Five, so he’d missed her transformation into a humanoid, and since his mind had been so occupied with many other thoughts, it briefly surprised him to behold her new visage as she alighted on the ground before him.
Also, she looked upset.
“Sorry that I didn’t talk to you after the Altar,” he said, pre-empting her complaint. “I just didn’t have anything I wanted to buy.”
Her large eyes brightened at his words.
“I’ll say!” she exclaimed, though she was smiling. “I was so excited for you, since you saved all the Players in the Forbidden Altar, but then you never called for me!”
“I didn’t realise you were following along with how I fared inside the Stages,” he replied.
“Well of course I do!” she said.
“My trip to the tower didn’t go super well,” Adam added.
“While I disapprove of your choice of Absolute, I think you did a good thing in taking out Nwetrou’s adherent,” she said, surprising him once again.
